Example
Bobby Valentine's Go-Go-Go spring training program may have led to inflammation in Carl Crawford's left wrist. Crawford, who may have been pushing himself too hard in order to be ready by Opening Day, will not swing a bat for a few days:
I think it was from all that bunting. I did a lot of extra bunting. I was doing a lot this week. ... I'm always concerned when there's a setback. I don't know how bad it is. But according to the doctor it doesn't look that bad. I was feeling real good, too. I wasn't expecting this.

It should be interesting to see what B3 does with pitch counts, minor injuries, and so on. Looks like he'll be of the 'shake it off, y'big sissy, if you want to stay out of my doghouse & play for me' school of sports medicine. Should mean plenty of call-ups from Pawtucket.
